Cute Cork Bunny Baskets



Cork Bunny Baskets - Using Silhouette adhesive cork sheets to decorate egg baskets. Designed by Janet Packer for the Silhouette UK Blog and at www.CraftingQuine.blogspot.co.uk



Hiya,  Over on the Silhouette UK Blog today I have a 3D project using Silhouette Cork Sheets to decorate these cute Bunny Baskets (#76181) from the Silhouette Design Store.

They are great for egg collecting, and pretty enough to use as decoration too.

I cut the bunny panels from adhesive cork sheets, added fluffy pom-pom tails, and some additional floral decorations (#121568, #251053).

My post over on the Silhouette UK Blog has details on the customisations I added to these baskets as well as instructions for cutting the cork sheets (including cut settings).


Here are some projects I've made previously with the cork sheets.  Just click a photo to visit the project.





Cork gives a great added texture to cards and home decor projects. Have YOU used cork accents on your projects? What have you used it for (do share)?

Scarecrow Basket made with the Scarecrow Topper SVG from Sanqunetti Design


Hiya, today I've created a fun scarecrow basket made with the Scarecrow Topper SVG from Sanqunetti Design.

I made my own basket by welding the hat and face together for the front and back of the basket. Then I added some rectangles for the sides and base, then tabs and slits (for a handle), and a handle piece too, of course.



To add some decoration, I made some panels for the basket sides and the handle.



Once I'd made up my scarecrow topper from textured card stock I adhered him to the basket prior to assembly. It was easy to add the decorative panels at this stage too.



Then it was simply a matter of adhering the side panels to the back of the scarecrow's head and slipping the handle into the slits on the side of the basket. I'd also add a little glue to the handles to ensure they don't move once my cute basket is filled with fall treats.



The Scarecrow Topper SVG can be purchased from Sanqunetti Design from the website or the Etsy store. This guy makes a fun basket but he'd look great on fall cards and invitations too.
